Old Man Thabo Sefolosha Is The Latest Secret Weapon In Utah's Weird Arsenal
The Utah Jazz ran out to a big lead over the Nuggets Thursday night, then held on for dear life during a late Denver surge and escaped with a 111–104 victory.

The Patriots Will Have To Navigate Robert Kraft's Mess Without Their "Character Coach"
The fallout from Robert Kraft’s solicitation charges has set the stage for a ham-handed response from the NFL, as well as fueled the larger conversation around sex work, but now it’s affected the team he owns, in that a guy whose contract expired had a strong opinion on what Kraft did....

Suns Fans Wait Hours For Josh Jackson But Instead Get Free Beer, Which Is Way Better
Several dozen otherwise normal adult human beings waited for several hours in a Phoenix grocery store Wednesday night for an opportunity to meet and score an autograph from utterly unremarkable Suns second-year forward Josh Jackson.

The Blue Jackets Going All-In Isn't Crazy <i>Or</i> Stupid
It’s not at all rare for a contending NHL team to say “Fuck it” and go all-in at the trade deadline. God knows the window of opportunity to win a Cup is small and it makes sense, rather than overvaluing the potential of prospects and draft picks, to acquire the One Final PieceTM that will put you ov...

Anthony Davis Tried Hard Not To Smile At LeBron James's Dagger
On Wednesday night, Anthony Davis showed the Lakers what they missed out on by, uh, offering their entire team to a chaotic New Orleans front office that had no desire to let its superstar move to California: in just 21 minutes of *cough* injury-mandated *cough* court time, Davis went 10-for-14 from...

Five Months Later, The Rudderless, League-Worst Suns Are Finally Interviewing For A General Manager
The Suns recently snapped a team-record and almost-season-worst* 17-game losing streak. They have won fewer than a fifth of their games this season, and once again they are the worst basketball team in the NBA.

Maybe Brad Stevens Isn't Quite Up To <i>This</i>
“We’re just not together. Plain and simple.” That’s Boston’s Marcus Smart, in the aftermath of the 118-95 ass-whomping his Celtics received at the hands of Pascal Siakam and the Toronto Raptors last night. By my informal count, this is something like the 917th time in this disappointing Boston seaso...

Boban Lives!
It looked real bad when huge basketball man Boban Marjanovic went down in a heap against the Pelicans Monday night. His leg twisted to an alarming angle, and he was unable to put any weight on it at all, and he seemed to be in a ton of pain. And when huge fellows like Boban crab-meat their lower leg...

It will suck for everyone when the Blue Jays make the inevitable, cynical-as-shit decision to plug Vladimir Guerrero Jr. back into their minor league system at the start of this season, in order to rig his MLB service time and extend team control for as long as possible. Young Vlad will be getting s...
